With this person though, you know its different.
But then it ended.
You were never going to allow yourself to go that far with someone again.
Jordan Bauer
You were so sure.
It started as something so innocent.
A look across the bar.
A moment at the bookstore when you reached for the same book.
That swipe right instead of left that gave you an immediate match.
However you met this new person, the instantaneous feeling of wanting to know them was overwhelming.
Jordan Bauer
You see their passions and their eyes light up as they talk about them.
You talk about your scars.
The ones that are so deep and so scary that you dont just tell anyone about them.
You feel a bit shaky around them.
Its something you never wanted to feel again but here you are.
But you deny it.
Youre denying that it could possibly be more than just a fling.
Why?Because you promised yourself youd never fall in love again.
You promised yourself that you would keep a safe distance.
No matter how cute they look in the morning when theyre sleeping beside you.
No matter how smart or incredibly funny they are.
Not even when they make you extremely happy.
Love was never going to be a thing that crossed your mind ever.
Weve all made mistakes when it comes to love.
Weve all been the one whos cared more and weve all been the person whos cared less.
And youre scared which is valid.
Because loving someone new after having one or multiple bad endings to relationships, is absolutely frightening.
Trusting someone else with your heart thats already so bruised and worn is brave.
With this person though, you know its different.
Even though you are fighting it with everything you have.
But your hearts speak so fluently and your souls connect so effortlessly.
The map on your heart leads to them.
You see, youre allowed to love again.
Just give yourself the permission no matter what the outcome could be.
Because it giving your heart this time could be the best decision youve ever made.
